Stop food waste. Choose food that is sourced in an efficient and sustainable
way to free up land for nature, sustainable forestry and biofuel production. Everyone has an equal right to healthy levels of protein in their diet - for this to happen, wealthier people need to eat less meat.

7. TRANSPORT
Provide incentives to encourage greater use of public transport, and to reduce the distances people and goods travel. Promote electrification whereve possible, and support research into hydrogen for shipping and aviation.

8. TECHNOLOGY
Develop national, bilateral and multilateral action plans to promote research and development in energy efficiency and renewable energy.

9. SUSTAINABILITY
Develop and enforce strict sustainability criteria that ensure renewable energy is compatible with environmental and development goals.

About Me

I am a development manager by training and have been working with Civil society for close to 20 years, including being the Regional Coordinator for the Lake Victoria Environment Management Project (LVEMPII) Civil Society Watch Project (Nov. 2012 - May 2015) of the East African Sustainability Watch Network. I have followed the process of development and eventual adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and feel that I can contribute to tracking progress of this framework by regularly highlighting field level experiences and perspectives from the Global South (especially Africa).
